After sharing thoughts during her regular Today show time slot earlier this month that many on the left viewed as racist, Megyn Kelly has seen her career derailed and her colleagues turn their backs on her. But if having her career ruined over a simple remark wasn’t enough, it now appears that Kelly and her family have been harassed by some members of the media.
Kelly revealed on Wednesday in a pair of tweets that paparazzi have been outside her home for days on end and that, despite her clear requests to the contrary, some were harassing her family. At least one reporter even took pictures of her children, followed her to her daughter’s school, and then published video of the young girl and her classmates.
Stalker paparazzi
Kelly first aired her grievances in a tweet on Wednesday, writing:
1 of 2: For a week paparazzi has been lurking outside my home day & nite. Finally today I took my kids to school. I went out alone 1st, offered them donuts &begged them to just take their pic of me & to leave my kids alone when they emerged. All were nice. Except the Dailymail…

In a follow-up tweet, Kelly called out the media outlet directly, writing of the Daily Mail:
2 of 2: The DailyMail 1st published photos of my husb IN OUR HOME & then *did* photog my kids, trailed us to my daughter’s school, & secretly videotaped my 7-yr-old child (her classmates too) & posted it. THIS IS NOT RIGHT.

Disconcerting response
Replies to Kelly’s tweets were indicative of the coarsened and fractured society that has become normal in America, as haters and supporters alike took up entrenched positions.
One apparent Kelly supporter wrote:
I don’t agree with most of your viewpoints/work. However, you deserve privacy. Your family is/should be off limits. Prayers for their and your safety.

But while many believed that Kelly’s children should be off-limits from the press, others weren’t so kind.
Gosh, that’s too bad. I guess she doesn’t like being treated poorly and dishonesty by other people. Strange how that works.

haven’t you said that’s the price people pay for being in the public eye? That they knew what they signed up for? Now you want us to pitty you, I’m sorry no, That’s the price you pay (right or wrong) for being in the public eye..

With Kelly’s fame among both conservatives and liberals, it’s no surprise that reporters want to document her every move after her shameful departure from NBC.

Still, Kelly’s newsworthiness doesn’t grant the media the right to stalk and harass her family at their home, and it most certainly doesn’t make her children — or their innocent classmates — fair game to be photographed.
It’s a shame that some members of the media don’t seem to agree.
